Regulatory agencies are setting firm compliance deadlines for enterprises to transition infrastructure to post-quantum cryptography. Early adoption is concentrated in financial services and defense supply chains.
Inventorying Legacy Encryption Assets
Chief Information Security Officers are conducting audits to locate vulnerable RSA and ECC implementations. Automated discovery tools are deployed to map encryption dependencies across hybrid environments.
Performance Overhead and Testing
Post-quantum algorithms require larger key sizes, introducing latency in TLS handshakes and database transactions. Organizations are performing stress testing to ensure infrastructure capacity handles increased processing loads.
